It was ok. Room showed wear. And no hot water. It was close to the beach. We would stay there again.

Embassy Suites By Hilton Gulf Shores Beach Resort
The room was clean and the king room with a beach balcony view was spacious, the bed area was separate from the living/balcony area. Breakfast was very good especially the omelette bar. Great location and beach access . We definitely will be going back.
